The North Star Deep-Sea Fishing boat is a 90′ aluminum hull boat with 75 marked fishing spots around the perimeter of the rail; with 5 of those spots located on the “bow pulpit” that hangs out over the water. She has a spacious upper sun deck with benches and can hold an additional 75 riders. Benches run around the exterior of the main deck cabin and inside you will find a cash galley serving hot breakfast and lunch, tables & seating areas.

The North Star is great for beginners; the 5 hour trip time will be approximately 1/2 travel to and from, and 1/2 time in the fishing reef areas. Your choice of morning or afternoon trip does not make a difference in fishing….whichever is better for your itinerary because the fish can’t tell time!

One of the original Queen Fleet, the Gemini Queen is an 89′ wooden double hull catamaran with a lot of shade on the sides, and back and nice wide curving bow. She holds 72 Fishing Spots marked around the perimeter of the rail and can take an 10 additional riders.

The Gemini Queen fishes in the Federal Waters of the Gulf of Mexico; your trip time will be approximately 1/2 travel to and from, and 1/2 time in the fishing reef areas. Leaving at 9:00 am, this is a great trip for those who want to sleep in a little and still get your fishing time in!

***SUMMER SPECIAL*** 8 Hour NIGHT Trips!

8 HR NIGHT TRIP Deep Sea Fishing

CLOSED FOR THE SEASON

JULY – AUGUST

6:00 pm till 2:00 am

Fishing Price – $75.00 / Rider Price – $30.00

As the heat of the day fades away while the beautiful sunset advances, on TUESDAY, THURSDAY and SATURDAY nights we’ll slip out past the rest of the boats coming in for the day. You won’t need sunglasses to watch the lights of the shore line fade away, and you can also forget the sunscreen as the large & comfortable Capt. Anderson heads out into the Gulf of Mexico and enters the calm and vast beauty of nighttime. Night fishing trips are very unique, and after all the hustle and bustle of the day – it will seem like you have the whole ocean to yourself!

While the boat is traveling, feel free to kick back and relax on the upper deck or hang out in the large climate controlled cabin; then as the captain approaches the reefs get ready to “get your fish on”! Fishing under the moon and stars will put a whole new perspective on your trip. The deckhands on board are very knowledgeable and helpful, and while some species don’t bite as well at night, there are some who give better action at night than they do during the day.

Our night trips are on the Capt. Anderson head boat, the same vessel that takes passengers out on the 10 HR day trip, and can accommodate up to 60 fishers. This trip will be headed out approximately 20 to 25 miles offshore and fishing in approximately 80 to 100 feet of water.

Upon our return to the dock at 2:00 am, if you wish to have your fish cleaned and filleted, the captain will open up the ice house of the Seafood Market and tag your catch with instructions. They will be processed when the market opens and then ready for you to pickup by 9:00 am the next morning.

THIS TRIP IS PERFECT for first time fishers as well as the experienced fisherman; great for a “date night” as well as a chance to have quality time with your family; or just right for hanging out with your group of friends or co-workers – and bring home the fish stories that will last a lifetime!

Join the Capt. Anderson family for a day of fishing aboard the Capt. Anderson. This 75′ aluminum hull boat has 60 numbered fishing spots around the perimeter of the rail and can take an additional 7 riders on board to “share the pole” with a fisher or just enjoy a day on the water!

The Capt. Anderson will take you to the Federal Waters of the Gulf of Mexico and your trip time will be approximately 1/2 travel to and from, and 1/2 time in the fishing reef areas.

Enjoy a variety of food and drink in the galley located in the climate controlled cabin of the main deck, or kick back on the spacious upper deck. We have experienced and helpful crew on board and a fish market at the pier to clean your catch. Bring your sense of adventure and take home your fresh fish. No age limit – just lots of fun for the whole family! Military discounts available.

With these two 12 HR Deep Sea Fishing boats from the Hall Queen Fleet, there is versatility! They are both 89′ wooden hull boats, with the Star Queen holding 58 marked fishing spots and the Florida Queen holding 52. They are both interchangeable on the 12 HR schedule, so if you prefer a particular boat or captain make sure to let us know when making your reservation.

The 12 HR trips approximately 1/2 travel to and from, and 1/2 time in the fishing reef areas offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. These boats are built for overnight trips with bunks down below equipped with a mat so all you need is to bring a blanket and pillow to catch a few winks while the boat is travelling; make sure to mention you want one while making your reservation so we can allocate it.

ANDERSON’S SEAFOOD MARKET

WHEN YOU GET BACK TO THE DOCK, the fish market is conveniently located just a few steps from the boats to drop off your stringer and get your fresh catch cleaned and filleted while you wait for just .50 cents/lb (5 lb min), or leave it for processing and pick up on your way home! For a slight additional charge, you can also get your fish skinned and/or vacuum packed and put in the deep freeze until you are ready to pick it up on the way home.

The Seafood Market also offers the BEST STEAMED SHRIMP ON THE BEACH! Owner Mel Miller adds NO SULFATES OR CHEMICALS to the fresh catch of white, pink, brown or rock shrimp and will sell you ONLY what is the local season’s best offerings! Call the market to see what is the “FRESH CATCH OF THE DAY” for fish and seafood at 850-235-3276

*We suggest you eat your delicious fish within 3 days to enjoy the freshest flavor! You can pick up all the sides you need at the market; lemons, breading, ice, cooler, tuna dip, etc. and recipes to cook your fish back at your room. OR – you may choose to do what locals call the “HOOK & COOK”. There are several area restaurants where you can bring your filleted fish to, and they will cook & serve it to you with all the fixings! Here are just a few of the HOOK & COOKrestaurants:

And…if you are down here in Florida and want to fish in STATE WATERS (within 9 miles out) you will find the regulations and loads of other information at FWC – SALTWATER FISHING REGULATIONS.

Remember, we go out on our fishing trips rain or shine (the fish are already wet and still hungry :-), but the Captain reserves the right to cancel a fishing trip if he feels the weather (or the size of the waves) will be too rough. We deal with Mother Nature year-round and above all want you to have a great experience on your fishing trip! Make sure we have a phone number to reach you while you are here in town so the ticket office can call you to reschedule your trip.
